Every programme has a panel of 3 ‘rent a gob’ commentators with loud firmly rooted opinions. Sky have Alastair Campbell who I guess went off on a rant, BBC LauraK has Piers Morgan who has predictably tried to take over

Sadly, these pundit panels have basically become the building blocks of every political programme in the country precisely because such tw*ts will go on a rant that the producers can clip for social media. Some people clearly get them, but, to me, they're all basically the presenter going 'what do you think of what you've just heard/this issue' and the reply is always 'exactly what you'd thought I'd say, because I've been booked for my predicatable opinions rather than any actual insight'. 

From Question Time to Politics Live to the Sunday politicals, it's all basically the same dirge with the same too small group of opinion columnists, ex-politicians, relatives of a former prime minister and members of dodgy think tanks (with the latter actually raising serious questions about journalistic integrity).
